Dr Julia Mewes hosted an open morning for local pet owners recently at the new Mewes Vets on Lincoln Avenue in Peacehaven to introduce new vet Dr Jabob Sen. Their colleague Dr Marc Abraham OBE was also there to meet everyone.
Dr Marc Abraham OBE is not only a veterinary surgeon, but also an animal welfare campaigner, author and broadcaster, regularly appearing on shows including BBC Breakfast and Sky News, as well as being a producer of the US movie documentary Dog by Dog.
Dr Jacob only joined the Mewes Vets’ team last month, having relocated from Cambridge to Hove. He was born and bred in Basingstoke and trained at the same vet school as Dr Julia: Cambridge University.
On qualifying he has spent three years honing his skills in an accredited hospital and smaller practice environments. He has a special interest in diagnostic imaging, medicine and the emergency and critical care of our pet patients.
He will be particularly valued at The Mewes Vets for his ability to build a rapport with worried pet owners and communicate with compassion, respect and mutual understanding.
He has been nominated as Pet Plan Vet of the Year for 2023 and again for 2024.
Local pet owners visit
Visitors were able to have a guided tour of the new facilities at the Mewes Vets, Peacehaven. Many chose to introduce their dogs to the vets and nurses in the calm of a non appointment visit. The dogs enjoyed lots of treats and cuddles, whilst the pet owners had a cuppa and a slice of cake.
The Mewes Vets embrace a heartfelt ethos to treat your pets as friends.
We are proudly independent and this means we can run the surgery in the same way we always have, with integrity, flexibility, compassion and the best interests of our clients and their pets at the heart of everything that we do.
The Mewes is committed to keeping traditional values of a personal approach with our 1 pet: 1 vet policy, we want to take the time to get to know you and your companions.
We will be holding further open mornings on 18th May and 8th June. Keep an eye on our website themewesvets.co.uk/events for full information or contact us on 01273 359092.
